The Truth About Liars - The Real You
elton john-just like noahs ark
lyrics:bernie taupin music:elton john
album:the captain the kid
its just like noahs ark
theres two of every kind
pretty girls and boys in drag
walking a fine thin line
shaking hands and bussing cheeks
licking their lips like they could eat
me alive in a couple of weeks
yea just like noahs ark
italiano promotion men
chomping a big cigar
slapping backs and making cracks
about the fags in the bar
radio boss dipping his nose in a little white packet
you put it out son and well all back it
yea its just like noahs ark
and the waves are crashing round us
but were ready for the flood
and we dont need a sign like an olive branch
in the beak of a snow white dove
were not as dumb as we might look
you cant keep us in the dark
with me and you its two by two just like noahs ark
these four walls have seen
the cockettes and the casters
from san francisco to ohio
ive seen beauty and disaster
cocky young roosters and little chicks
flashing smiles, shaking them hips
trying to hook it up for the late night shift
here in noahs ark
and we wrote it as we saw it from the centre of the stage
all access to the liars who claim they wrote a page
but for every tiny dancer theres a dog thats had its day
the truth is never quite the same as what the papers say
